For starters, much of the area is owned by the federal government, a point stressed in the Secure Rural Schools Act. “We’re primarily owned by the people of the United States, and so we can’t tax that,” Superintendent Witty said.
The average age in Grant County is also ten years closer to retirement age than the statewide average. These folks often don’t have kids in the district, and they may be living on a fixed income, meaning they have less money available and less self-interest in voting for a bond to fund school improvements.

Sounds less like leopards eating the faces of the voters, and more like collateral damage to children, who, if they were to get a proper education, would probably be less inclined to vote in Nazis.
